Illustrated by
Masamitsu Saito.
A young boy can't contain his excitement when he looks outside and sees snow. He bundles up and heads out, leading readers along on his adventures. Kaneko's use of descriptive language gives the reader a sensory experience of the child's world. Saito's illustrations, created with oil pastels, gouache, acrylics, and colored pencils, evoke the feelings and motion of the story.
